This is the main collection post for all of my townie eyes. 40 of the colors are packed in one .rar, and the pink and red eyes are packed in separate .rars for townie and non-townie varieties. If you need a lengthy explanation of townie eyes and genetics, I have one posted on my MTS2 journal, here (http://www.modthesims2.com/member/journal.php?do=showjournal&j=441).

:director: THESE ARE NOT, I REPEAT, NOT DEFAULT REPLACEMENT EYES. They will work alongside your current set of default eyes. In conjunction with the default eye set, these eyes will give your randomly generated sims (including new NPCs and townies) 47 eye color possibilities. If you are using one of my default eye sets, those 5 colors will be twice as likely to appear on a randomly-generated sim (42 colors and 5 extra chances for the default colors). If you also download my freckle-linked townie eyes (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=31304), you will have a grand total of 61 different eye color possibilities for your randomly-generated sims. Please note that these will only work for NEW randomly generated sims. Maxis default townies and NPCs will still use the 5 default colors.

If you would like to generate new townies or NPCs, here is a tutorial to help you on MATY (read all the comments!): http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,5861.0.html

:director: The pink and red eyes come in 2 flavors: binned, or binned + townie-friendly. This is because they are fantasy colors and you may or may not want them on random non-vampire townies. Please choose one (1) version of each color, as they have the same file name, and may cause problems if you have both installed!





My binning scheme is not exactly the same as the game's binning scheme. This is because very few eye creators bin their own eyes (I know I sometimes forget to bin eyes before putting them in my game), and I didn't want random rare eye colors to be always more dominant than the brown eyes I've made. I'm aware that on some computer configurations, some of the eye colors appear to be redundant. I can tell the difference on my own computer, and in the end, it's a hobby, and I'm only designing for my own setup. If you find some of the colors appear too similar to each other on your computer, just delete the superfluous colors.

Gorgeous eyes!

Cool, that's a huge set, and I like them!

very cool

Great Work.

I love your eye sets - I think I use them on all my sims now.  Thank you for yet another great set and for making them work for townies! Yay!

lovely
thanks

2 thumbs up great job thank you...use'em too much because I love'em too too much.

Very cool!  Some great looks to be had from this assortment =)  Thanks alkaloid!

Aw, thanks, guys! :love2:

these are great, can never have too many eyes!!
 
thankies :grin:

:director: UPLOADING MY FILES TO THE EXCHANGE OR PAY SITES IS BAD KARMA.

:director: These files will be moved to the sticky post in one month.

Just two eyes in this post: pink or albino eyes, and a very vibrant green-gold hazel. They were basically the only two decent results out of a recent attempt to make some fantasy colors (btw, person who asked me, I don't think rainbow eyes will EVER look good). They are both binned (details below), and are available in either a townie/random sim variety, or a user-created sim only variety. Only download one of each color - the same color files have the same name, and the same cookiethingmagig.

My townie-friendly eyes do NOT replace default eyes. They are available to townies *in addition to* default eyes. :) If you'd like more townie eyes, I have some more normal colors in this post: 26 Binned and *Townie-friendly* eyes. New colors and updates for old eyes - de-Pets'd (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=202736).



My binning scheme:

Most dominant: browns, blacks, etc.

Dominant: Green, dark blues, some hazels, etc.

Neutral: lighter/brighter greens and blues, some hazels, green-gold hazel.

Recessive: lightest blues and greens, greys, some moderately exotic colors, etc.

Most recessive: violet, red, novelty eyes, very exotic colors, albino eyes.

Note: If you don't like how I binned my eyes, just go into SimPE and change them. I'm not going to start setting up custom binning schemes for other people.

Beautiful!

Very nice!  I love colours outside the main stream!  Thank you!

4 extra-dark eye colors: brown/black hazel, black/green hazel, dark brown/blue hazel, and very dark grey. They seem black from a distance, but the different colors give variety at close range. They were designed with Native American sims in mind, but they are really appropriate for any ethnic group.

Please note that these are TOWNIE-FRIENDLY eyes, and will be available to the game in addition to the default 5 eye colors to use whenever it randomly generates a sim, including the dice roll in CAS. The default sims were designed by Maxis with pre-selected eye colors; they will not be affected by these files.

Also note that these eyes are binned to work with the genetics of the game. Black/green hazel, dark brown/blue hazel, and brown/black hazel were all left at the most dominant setting. Dark grey was binned one step down, at the less dominant setting. There are a total of 5 dominance settings in the game.

For more information on my binning scheme and eye genetics in the game, please see this post: http://www.modthesims2.com/member/journal.php?do=showentry&e=1094.

Nice Job

Beautiful.  Your townie-binned eyes are a new must in my games.

Thank you for going through the extra trouble of binning these! Can't wait to get them in-game!

Great work...thankx.

Alkaloid, hold my hand and explain to me: are these default replacements or additional genetic components that you have modded but do not over-ride and existing default?  I ask because I want to add these, but I have a default replacement for the 5 Maxis eye colours that I really like, and got positively thick when I read your information about modifying the genetics of the eye packages. >_<

They are additional genetic components, that will not override the existing defaults. Sorry if that wasn't clear. :)

Fantastic job! :icon_smi:

These are some eyes I cooked up when (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=47635) I (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=47704) was (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=47698) on (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=47700) a (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=47702) bit (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=47703) of (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=47695) an (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=47693) eye-related (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=47696) rampage (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=47697). They are definitely my favorite eyes so far: I think I finally hit the right balance between close-up iris detail and a realistic look from a distance.

These only come in townie eyes, since I am no longer making non-townie versions of eyes unless the eyes are truly exotic. On that note, I will be removing all of my non-townie eyes (except the red, pink and freckle-linked eyes) on Monday, June 4. This is your last chance to grab them, if you really dislike townie eyes for whatever reason. If this is the first time you've seen townie eyes, and you want to get them allllll, they are collected in one post, right here (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=28559). This latest batch is already in the main post, so you can just go right there and still get these eyes.

Townie eyes are not default-replacement eyes. They are just eyes the game pulls from when making a random choice about eye color.

Since I got all creative with the color names, I shall explain them!

   Tabac - a very dark green-brown hazel. Binned at the most dominant setting.

Honey - a light brown with golden overtones. Binned at the less dominant setting.

Montana Sapphire - a rich navy blue. Binned at the less dominant setting.

Deep Forest - a dark blue-green hazel. Binned at the less dominant setting.

Alkaline - based on my eyes! A teal-brown hazel with dark blue rims. Binned at the neutrally dominant setting.

Capri Blue -a bright blue with a hint of turquoise. Binned at the neutrally dominant setting.

Teal-Grey Hazel - self-explanatory. Binned at the less recessive setting.

Desert Oasis - a tan and spring green hazel, with blue flecks and brown rims. Binned at the less recessive setting.

Tan-Light Grey Hazel - self-explanatory. Binned at the less recessive setting.

Heliotrope - a bright blue-violet hazel. Binned at the most recessive setting.

Theese really beautifull eyes will make my Sims look so much better. Thankyou for sharing with us! Didn't know there could be eyes used by the townies except the defaults, you learn something new every day. Thanks once again.
Bye for now, Mia!
